The physical event will take over the dates from May 28th 2024 until June 7th 2024.  Messe Düsseldorf will put in place strict Covid-19 prevention measures to ensure the safety of attendees. Among the implemented safety measures will be a 3G entry policy. Attendees must show negative test results, immunisation passports, or proof of recovery before entering the venue. They must uphold a social distance of 1.5 meters at all times.
